Okay, the footage of the Polar Express barreling through the snow was pretty awesome and impressive.

Those bikers reached the top in good condition, it went all downhill from there.

Wow the picture of the train going through was absolutely incredible.... You guys have put together an amazing video 👍👍👍👍

About 30 odd years ago there were news reports of trains somewhere out west having to slowly push their way through snow accumulation as deep as the trains were tall. It was either that or be stranded way out in the middle of nowhere.

14:20 now the driveway is a solid sheet of ice😂😂😂

Polar Express barreling through the snow was pretty awesome and impressive.

I've been in northern Minnesota when the temperatures get below -30ºF. Locals are advised that it is too risky to keep the snowplows working because if there is a breakdown they can't count on being able to get anyone out to help them. People are advised not to go out unless they have a serious emergency. The stores are all closed and about the only thing that remains open is the hospital. Most people actually do stay home. I also learned that propane even stops flowing at around -40º so you need to have an alternative source of heat.

The beacon shown is not an EPIRB. It is an aircraft 406 ELT (Emergency Locator Beacon). It is possible to set off manually, but is designed to automatically activate during a crash from G forces

There are some absolutely devastating hits in that bike crash. I'm surprised nobody died.

Anchorage is NOT the capitol of Alaska! That honor belongs to Juneau!

Your channel is like a joyride through the ups and downs of life, with laughter as a constant companion. Incredible work!

5:13--Anchorage is not the capital of Alaska. That would be Juneau.

Thank you Train guy !!! That was Badass !! ❤👍👍👍👍

14:11 The beer can rode along with him. Not surprised alcohol was involved. Hilarious, though!

4:50 good to know we definitely needed that crucial piece of information

This Was Crazy an Scary 😳 But Great Captures 😃👍🏼🙏🏼

Not gunna lie; I would have 100% believed that there was a massive pile up in a snow mountain bike race if it hadn't been filmed.

At 8:29, since seen the video before. The Conductor doesn’t ring the bell, it automatically rings when the horn is blow, like on CN 3065. And some locomotives have the horn cut out switch, and the doesn’t ring, like I had caught on CSX 762

Lmao that bike race is absolutely mental.

4:26 So I wasn't the only one who thought of hatching baby spiders. 😵‍💫

Hope is a town in Alaska. The capital is Juneau and you cannot get there by road

I would have stopped running from the avalanche about the same point. Looks like he was going up hill and the snow was rapidly losing momentum trying to chase him up.

Awsome video keep up the awsome work

My brother mike was the pilot of the chopper. Crazy right??

“Whoever gets there first, wins.” - You have a knack for stating the obvious.

the capital is Juneau, not Anchorage. Anchorage is simply the largest city in the state.

Much and good informations. And I'm from Germany. Often I don't understand English or American speaker. But that's really nice to understand:)

18:04"Mercedeees!" -winter storm guy XD

One little tid bit regarding semi-trucks/etc: their tires burst occassionally as well. Recently, I had seen that happen on my travels.

They had a bottleneck on a curve.What did they think was going to happen lolol

I knew those guys who tried escaping notorious Montreal

Have to say I much prefer these channels that have bothered to find out and to tell what happened and where and when it did happen in the video clips they show, not just collect and show without any explanations included.

The information on the train was so ridiculous it was painful. And then he calls it the polar express hahahahahaha.

He didn’t spill a drop of beer either! LoL 😂

Also if you were wondering at 13:48 his beer survived as well

I live a few miles away from Gardiner NY...That's how we do winter sports in Orange County and the beautiful Hudson Valley LOL

I love trains! Excellent!

The problem is that the mountain crushing down by supposedly soaking from the rain is completely DRY! It is dry sand falling down with the mountain!

The trains that run form Denver to Grand Junction Colorado are outfitted with a big snowplow blade that throws the snow up and out of the way.

7:53 I’m 45 min away from Salisbury. My best friend died there three years ago in may

Hey, y'all... he got you to watch and comment about the capital of Alaska. Very clever! Good thinking, video guy!

We caught snow off someone’s box van last month and and it broke both layers of glass on our vehicle. The guy pulled over over and bought us a new windshield. I’ve never had problems with antifreeze down to -67f. The shocks felt like they were welded though.

#8. Juneau is the Capital of the Alaska, not Anchorage ;)

The bike race looks like a fun strategy videogame😂

You always want to minimize your time next to and behind large trucks. Not only can payload come flying off but debris stuck on the truck from mud or rocks.

8. Anchorage isn't the capitol.

The dude with the pool is Legend

The bike race was always going to end like that. There’s about a billion participants and the first turn is a super tight chokepoint at 60 mph…

ya know, that video of a khazakstan blizzard looks about exactly like what we got here in ND this year.

You have to be a real masochist to want to participate in a glacier bike race that is essentially human pinball..

I just know the driver of the car in the final destination style accident has anxiety and a headache now 😅

Awsome video

At 13:55 his drink didn't even tip over. I'm impressed!

#9 "who ever get's there first, wins" yeah typically that's why first place is the winner 😂🤣

Hey bro.. please make video on top 10 real GHOST Caught on CCTV ...

My understanding with the train hitting that amount of snow is the very REAL possibility it could derail. Glad it didn't do so [here at least]. The result could easily have lethal consequences for the engineer and conductor.

Above ground pool. Why didn't he just leave it alone it would have melted. Now the pool is totalled.😮

I've been in -38. I don't like below 60 so I'd never live in a place like this LOL

I have a friend who drives semi-trucks on the North Slope in Alaska and he says that your engine won't freeze up in a blizzard unless the air filter gets clogged with snow. The way to prevent that is to take the air filter element out of the air filter box and put it inside the vehicle. The engine will suck in any snow that gets in the engine compartment and it will just run through the engine the way humid air will. In a blizzard there is no dirt to damage the engine so removing the air filter won't harm the engine.

That snow isn't no where near stopping that train. Watch some other rail clearing videos. They have mega snowblower for those bad boys

the Crane Falling. Very Poor Hookup. Wasnt Balanced

at least some bikes in that downhill crash were broken in half, some people who crashed may have been ok, but unless they wanted to unicycle it, they didnt finish regardless lol

The helicopter pilot should have pushed the guy with the gun off the roof when he was trying to help the inmates.

3:40 Well at least they had the right music playing BUT what did they expect, that is insane on many levels very steep, and way to many people than a bottleneck turn, I would have loved to be a fly on the wall in that planning meeting.

The train shot actually was average. There wasn't even enough snow on the track/ground to even warrant putting on the snow plow car in front of the engine, and those snow plows come in two different types, wone with snow blowers in them, and ones with simple blades on them. the wones with blades on them can get HUGE, the blades stand around 12 to 15 feet high, and that not measuring their height when they are on the rail truck wheels just the blade height. Some of the older models, which are still in use in some portions of Canada can reach twenty feet high. These snow plow cars were and are still used mostly in the Rockies, Eastern Canada has been known to pile up snow higher than what the mountains in the west can have, simply because the nature of the Great Lakes region for precipitation. They are by no means unacquainted with massive snow falls.

The cycling bit was absolutely hilarious. Jeremy Clarkson would approve.

Nice video

that bell isnt the train, its the crossing, also id take 10ft of snow to stop a train that size emd sd70s can take at least 5ft of snow

Unbelievable moments caught on camera that are hard to believe!

8:27 the horn is snowplugged

Yeah, the last one, the ocean is something you don't f**** with, you don't leave anything up to chance or test fate, you take all necessary percautions and be prepared every single time you're out on the ocean.

Driving around ive seen various things kicked up and through cars. Imagine a load of pipe on the rack of a truck and whoops its sent flying off as the brakes are applied lots of spears going thru the window to run you through. Difficult to see its headed frim behind you and noving at a rate of speed not much is going to stop them from going clear through you as the bounce of the pavement.

Canadian prairies storm ? Every year ?

I once saw a video of a snowplow train in Southern Ontario stalled by the snow. It backed up and, on it's second try, it lifted right up several feet onto the drift.

Turned it right off when this guy thought a clear day with snow on the ground was a blizzard. We dont play that

8:07 santa upgraded

Why am I in the mood for candy corn?

And he still didn't spill his beer

8:29 GREAT BRITAIN TAKE NOTE- don’t stop the world when you get two inches of snow on your train tracks 😅😅

Well , atleast they had an excellent & appropriate soundtrack at the start .

4:18 i saw a guy trip over someone and do a front flip, then crawl away, that looked like it hurt 4:25 (the guy crawling away)

The drunk that Ruined his pool when he was super probably regrets it must’ve just never took care of. It didn’t want it anyway.

EPERB. Standard safety device for any nautical vessel.:)

3:28 ants hurrying to get into hole

14:03 LOL this guy looks and acts like a buddy of mine! Always the life of the party …

14:30 YAY U WRECKED UR POOL😅😅

Wow

if you mix your antifreeze yourself, 3 parts antifreeze to 2 parts water is the quickest, it will go to almost -80.

That snow was never going to stop a raging metal beast like a loaded and powerful train at speed, they are made to go through snow... assuming it's in an area or country that gets decent amounts of snow

Must have bought the faulty steel cables from Rick Sanchez 😂

Can I make a request for another animal encounter but this time at zoos because I have video clips of a huge male tiger jumping on the glass trying to scare people.

That train was not slowed down one bit by that snow.

That "blizzard" was not much of one, it was barely more than gale force winds blowing the snow around, I've been in blizzards that dropped four feet of snow on the ground in just under three hours, so more than a foot of snow per hour, and I was caught out in that in my car, and still made it back home, I had to hang my head out the window to make sure I stayed on the road and drove very slowly and it took me four hours to get home in a drive that normally takes 45 minute to make in normal driving conditions. But we made it back, but it was night time and you couldn't see any further than three feet in front of your vehicle. Fortunately the snow flakes were Huge and falling slowly, so it could have been much worse, we were actually thinking we would have to stop at a road junction and sit out the blizzard but I had no desire to let my car get buried in a snow bank that would form around it if we didn't keep moving.

Damn, you never see helicopter hijackings. That’s crazy

*I bet that person never thought they'd be caught on camera doing that. Talk about embarrassing*

8:20 omg I’d love to have been the driver of the train!

Noby got hurt, sure... Have a look at 4:28 they guy speeding in on the middle right sweeping the other guys legs out underneath him.. Damn.. That's got to hurt.

@2:29 Looks like an Army of ants invading a Picnic.

It's much more likely that the iron bar was kicked up from a truck driving over it than the bar flying off of a truck.

woww
